Pale, scrawny appearance, probably due to starvation. Hyperactive, backs frequently, egg laying constitutive, slow pharyngeal pumping. Probably null (based on sequence, S. Nurrish). Suppresses activated GOA-1 and partially suppresses egl-3(rf). Lethal in combination with eat-16(rf). Previously called sag-1. Do not distribute this strain; other labs should request it from the CGC. This strain cannot be distributed to commercial organizations. This strain cannot be used for any commercial purpose or for work on human subjects.

ccIs4251 [(pSAK2) myo-3p::GFP::LacZ::NLS + (pSAK4) myo-3p::mitochondrial GFP + dpy-20(+)] I. Heterozygotes are superficially wild-type GFP+, and will segregate wild-type GFP+ heterozygotes, htp-3(y428) ccIs4251 homozygotes that are GFP+ in body wall muscle but not pharynx, hT2 GFP+ homozygotes, and aneuploid dead embryos. Avoid picking viable aneuploids that often appear larger and longer than wild-type.
